Dear Reader,
This past year has been one for the books. I went to my first ALA annual conference in Chicago, got to meet my favorite author- Sarah Dessen, I became a regular blogger for ALSC and I became a teen librarian. Perhaps the most significant, however, was on December 8, 2016. On that day, I walked across the stage and graduated with my MLIS degree and 4.0 GPA.
After I received my diploma, I ran out to my family's car, and we drove 2 hours to the next airport to take a red-eye to Fort Lauderdale, Flordia. I finally got to read a book by the ocean. It was a perfect way to end the year and my long journey.
All of these things I meant to write about, but I was so caught up in finishing my degree and resting that I never had the chance. As we enter into the new year, it is my commitment to myself and to you to begin to blog more.
For even though I have been absent from my blog, I am still passionate about serving tweens.
In the next few weeks, I hope to share the experiences of 2017 and beyond with you.
All the Best,
Pamela
